Angela Merkel was raised in the officially atheist German Democratic Republic. She was always a dissident, opposing the communist oppression of liberty and free speech. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, she engaged in the Christian Democratic Party, because those were her capitalist free-market beliefs.<br/>
Nowadays, she tries to soothe her right-wing conservative grassroots voters by making the occasional pro-Christian statement, to which she is forced by the fact that she is in a coalition with the VERY secular Free Democrats. Another problem is the obnoxious clown Horst Seehofer from Bavaria, to whom she is obliged to maintain a certain degree of friendship, if only in appearance.<br/>

Oh, they won't phrase it like that, so no one will be able to outwardly call them on it. They'll talk about being less enclosed as communities, opening up to the nation more, et cetera...but these fucks basically mean 'get rid of that nasty brown religion and adopt our white one'.

I did not know that to integrate into a society you had to adopt the "majority" religion.
